I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Covering is finished

Check for fit before covering

Guillow's plans are always "open ended!"

In the hands of a "Master" things work correct!

The plastic engine pieces fit nearly perfectly!

The block will be where the gear "plugs" in. NOT per plans!

This section removed from the covered wing to install the firewall

Send an email to James, he'll forward it.

Thanks, That means a lot. How do I give you my address privately?
David Duckett, Comment for image # 305502 Jun 07 13:34
Lots! However, I fully understand that buying that much might be a strain, unless you're a bit nuts like me, so if you'll send me your address privately, I'll send you some sheets to work with. It really does make a difference and I know you will like using it instead of what is supplied with the kit. That is, of course, provided you don't plan for the plane to fly on rubber bands. ;-)

I looked there and silkspan is pretty expensive. About how many planes can you get from 20 or 30 sheets?

Tower Hobbies is the best source.

They really fell in love with it when a freebie, one of the original Doolittle Raiders had to make an emergency landing in Vladivostock after it overshot China.

Looks neat, David. Where do you get your silkspan? I have a C/L model that needs a wing recover and hope to build some more from plans that will need covering.

Interesting, and looks like it's being well maintained for an outdoor museum piece.

Now dry, the exceass silkspan is ready to be trimmed/sanded away
David Duckett, Image # 305501 Jun 07 13:01

Rudder removed from silkspan

I think these are what he's using. They weigh .90 grams each. Cat. no. 100MW. I used them on my Typhoon.

Looks good, David, the B-25 is starting to come out of all those pieces of balsa.
